Oh, how I love a Riesling with that petrol emotion. The smell that reminds me of swimming near the flat-bottom boat with the Evinrude on the stern, dripping oil and gasoline into the water. It's not environmentally sound, but it's from my teenage years on a lake in Texas and I'm sorry about the water, but I loved that smell. This 2015 San Luis Obispo Riesling has that smell in spades, the smell that I long for in every Riesling I try. It's so strong it's on the palate, too.
